Presidential candidate Ron Paul has finished second in yet another
state caucus this week yet there has barely been a murmur from
the mainstream media once again.

The Louisiana Republican Party announced the preliminary
results yesterday in a press
release that was roundly ignored by the corporate
media:

Delegate candidates endorsed by US Senator John
McCain (R-AZ) appear to have won more state convention delegate
positions than any other presidential slate at the Louisiana
Caucuses.

Supporters of Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) appear to have captured
the next highest number of delegate positions.

"I applaud the supporters of Congressman Paul
for their enthusiasm and superior organizational ability,"
Chairman Roger F. Villere, Jr. said. "Our Party needs the
infusion of new activists who have both political skill and a
passion for protecting the freedoms guaranteed to us by the Constitution,"
he said. "I left the caucus with a renewed commitment to
promote our core Republican principles of limited government and
individual freedom, thanks to the zeal displayed by Congressman
Paul's Louisiana supporters," Villere said.

Mitt Romney came in third, and no mention was made
of Huckabee or Giuliani in the LAGOP's press release.

Despite a smattering
of wire reports on McCain which mentioned Ron Paul's second place
in passing and as ever described the Congressman as "longshot"
or "outsider", the media has acted like the caucus never
even happened.

The New York Times ran two main stories, one of
Giuliani winning over Florida voters, another on Mitt Romney’s
ill will.

The Chicago Tribune ran the headline "McCain, Romney in
close race for Florida".

Ron Paul has been placed higher than Giuliani in every single
caucus and primary thus far, yet the media still blanks him in
favor of reporting on Giuliani.

Despite the total lack of media coverage and the
fact that all other candidates decided not to campaign in Louisiana,
Ron Paul was there meeting and greeting residents on Monday, a
testament to his commitment and drive to deliver his message to
every American.

Paul's Louisiana success comes on the back of his
second place finish in Nevada at the weekend, which was also completely
ignored by the media.

The ever reliable Neocon
mouthpiece Fox News put up a graphic showing the
results from Nevada devoid of any information on Paul! They failed
to mention the #2 candidate, although they covered #1, #3 and
#4!

The New
York Times “official results page” on
its website failed to even list Ron Paul as a candidate on Sunday,
though it has since replaced Fred Thompson with Paul after the
former actor dropped out of the race Tuesday.

After two second place finishes and strong showings in New Hampshire
and South Carolina, it is clear that Ron Paul is a significant
player in the 2008 race, yet your so called free press seemingly
does not want you to realize this fact.
